I too have PCOS and am finding it hard to lose weight again. I lost about 60 lbs before my wedding in 2012 but have gained it all plus an extra 20 since then. Along with adding the weight on it started messing with my joints so i can't workout as hard as i was the last time i lost weight ( i wouldn't go to bed at night…

following! I would love to know what they are good for and more ideas of how to use them as well!

That is incredible!!! I too have PCOS and know how hard it is to lose weight with PCOS fighting you every step of the way!! Keep up the awesome work!! Feel free to add me!!

I too have PCOS and have been diagnosed for about 6 years now, but never had an ultrasound, just blood testing. I am attempting to following a low GI/low carb diet. I lost 60 lbs about 2 years ago before my wedding but have gained it all back and now my husband and I are trying to have a baby so I am trying to get it off…

I too am trying to follow a low GI diet but haven't figured out how to find the GI information on some foods. From what I have seen though all berries are great low GI choices, apples and bananas are medium GI fruits and my favorite watermelon is high GI :( I have seen a few indexes online when I did google searches.

WHO: Lauren WHERE: North West Alabama WHEN: ALL THE TIME, I'VE ALWAYS BEEN ON SOME SORT OF DIET/HEALTH KICK HOW: Pilates Training, swimming, zumba, workout dvd's, walking, anything I can do/get at the YMCA or the DVD and equipment that i have at the house WHY: I want to get healthy so we can start our family. I started at…

That depends on your size and over time you still won't burn as much because your body gets used to it. When I first started doing zumba I burned about 1000 each time/every hour, now I am anywhere between 600-750 depending on the instructor and how rigorous/intense I put in the work.

Donkey kicks and and everything jimlambrt2 said... also i think jillian michaels has a dvd or at least some exercises that work on that you can look at. I know when i was doing some of her stuff for my wedding my butt did get a little more pronounced and firmer, and i didn't have a butt.

I have an app on my phone called the diet couch and it had a quote one day that said temptations only last for 15 minutes... so i have been setting a timer for 15 minutes and then doing other stuff and generally when the 15 minutes goes up i have forgotten what i wanted or just don't want it anymore.

This is something my trainer showed me... There are much better and safer ways to get where you want to be in my opinion...https://medium.com/health-fitness-1/97bcce70356d

These look awesome, I will def. have to try, I love blueberry stuff!!

Thank you ladies for all the great information and advice!! I found a good site with some interesting articles and it's called pcosdiva.com. just thought I would share that with ya'll since you have been so great about sharing and helping me :) feel free to add me, us Cysters have to stick together ;)

I lost pretty quickly at first last year when I tried (about 35 lbs in 3 months, then it slowed down but i still lost 55 lbs 350 down to 293 before my wedding, but after the wedding life got the best of us and I gained almost half of that back). I gained after the wedding back up to 328 and am down to 318 in 2-3 months.…

I also have PCOS and am a newly wed. My husband and I are still in school so we know we are not ready to have children, but I want to lose weight for when we are in a year or two. It is so much harder to lose weight with PCOS. It's not all bad news though my mother was told she couldn't have kids and she had 3 beautiful…

I'm in... I am addicted to the scale... sometimes 3-4 times a day... My boss used to be a Personal Trainer and Body Builder and she said you really should only weight like every 60-90 days, especailly when losing weight b/c it takes time for your body to adjust... I can't wait 60-90 days but I do want to focus more on…

I took it for several months when I was first diagnosed with PCOS, and I have to say I couldn't take it. It made me extremely nauseous and upset stomach. I would take it after I ate and before I went to bed (on a fool stomach) and no matter what I ate (even grilled foods, veggies, whole grains, etc) it made me feel like I…

You have gotten some great advice!! I have been having problems lately with my acheilles tendon, it is much better when I wear tennis shoes but I can't at work... I have found that swimming is the best exercise for me without pain. I jog in the water, do grapevines, crab walk, jumping jacks, cross country jumps, and just…

I can't wait to try this recipe!! Thanks for posting!!!

There is nothing wrong with dating online as long as you are careful! My first experience with dating a guy online was not the greatest relationship but we did date for a year and a half, and it's not so much the dating site as it was just his lying and cheating towards the end... my second relationship was with a guy I…

I love Turkey, White Bean pumpkin Chilli... I found it on pinterest but i think it originally came from all recipes. It calls for a lb of ground turkey, can of diced green chilie's (I use rotell diced tomatoes with green chilis), a 15 oz can of libby's pure pumpkin puree, 2 cups of chicken broth, and 1- 15 oz can of great…

I think this is the best post! I do the same thing as far as weighing, i used to not be able to because it upset me, but now I know it is just water retention and that it usually goes down as long as I keep in control. AS far as wanting to eat, I eat 3 meals plus at least 2 snacks usually, if I get the munchies I just make…

My husband is pretty hair, and I LOVE it!! He is my furry man beast!! He tried shaving his chest once, and I hated it, the hair suited him more not to mention it was super prickly when it was growing back, so much so that I couldn't cuddle with him b/c it kept poking me... besides I like a little something to run my…

happy to have you back and ready to go!!! Your such a big inspiration for me b/c I need to lose about 200 lbs so I am happy to be in your corner and have you in my corner!! welcome back!!!

Definately a stroller! Pushing them in the swing is a good upper body workout, also try one of the bike trolly things that attach onto the back of the bike, to me it seems safer b/c it is seperate than the bike unlike the seat on the back, and it is closer to the ground so if somethign happened it wouldn't be a big fall.…
